It would be from the Chiefs. Might as well go ahead and rename them the KC Wolfpack since they seem to love our players and now give us tarps for discounts.

This is because he never qualified.....for NCSU that is.

a lot of similarities, both of the teams have the same qb situation, and receivers who suck...literally

good news from fowler (cant believe i said that)

Quote :

""There was a miscommunication last time," said N.C. State Athletics Director Lee Fowler. "We got one of them down before zero hit the clock. Some people were upset about that. But we're not going to drop the goals this time. We've kind of resolved that we won't drop them. The head of security here, Chief Younce, thinks it's better not to drop them at all.""

""I think truthfully we expect to beat East Carolina on a year in-year out basis," said Fowler. "To us it wouldn't be that big an upset. ""

First quote in a long time that I've seen from Fowler that brought a smile to my face.

9/18/2008 10:32:47 AM

I don't really think it'll be an upset either. Those games are always up for grabs

"College Football News takes a look at Saturday's contest against East Carolina. NC State (1-2) will be looking to upset the nationally-ranked Pirates (3-0). East Carolina (3-0) at North Carolina State (1-2), 12:00 EST Why to watch: East Carolina played with fire last weekend and darn near got burned. The Pirates, darlings among the non-BCS schools, needed to rally late in the fourth quarter against Tulane to avoid being on the other end of an upset. They better get used to seeing the other team’s best effort, which is what they’ll experience as an unbeaten and ranked program. North Carolina State has sputtered to a 1-2 start, beating William & Mary in a game that was sandwiched between losses at South Carolina and Clemson, respectively. These two schools have a long history and are separated by just 90 miles, so more than just a victory will be at stake. For the Wolfpack, it has a chance to build some momentum with a rare win over a Top 25 team. Why East Carolina might win: The way the Pirates are playing defense, they shouldn’t have many problems with the Wolfpack. Take out the game with William & Mary, and the Pack offense has produced one field goal in eight quarters. The passing game has miserable and the offensive line will struggle to control a big East Carolina front that’s led by end C.J. Wilson and tackle Jay Ross. Despite opening with ranked teams, the Pirates lead Conference USA in pass defense and are No. 2 in total defense. Why NC State might win: With no help whatsoever from the offense, the Wolfpack D has single-handedly kept the program from getting humiliated in the first three games. LB Nate Irving is having an All-ACC start and Willie Young can be a nuisance rushing around the edge. The East Carolina offense has been mortal during the three-game winning streak, averaging 26 points and failing to get the running game started against Tulane. While QB Patrick Pinkney is performing like an MVP, the rest of the Pirates can be controlled by the State defense. Who to watch: It didn’t catch up with East Carolina last week, but at some point, the lack of a running game could be their downfall. While it’s a shared problem with the offensive line, it’s incumbent upon Brandon Simmons and Jon Williams to start making something out of nothing. The Pack has been inconsistent in run defense, so this week would be a good time to get on course. What will happen: For the second straight week, East Carolina will have to scratch and claw in order to preserve its perfect record. It’s a good thing N.C. State is a mess on offense or else this game would be doubly dangerous for the Pirates. They’ll survive behind the play of Pinkney, who’ll be a rock when the game is tight in the second half. CFN Prediction: East Carolina 17 … NC State 14 ... Line: East Carolina -7.5 "

from someone one WRAL...

mark it down... Pirates 24 - Nate Irving 7

I'm a huge state fan but damn that was funny

9/18/2008 10:45:36 AM

Nate Irving can kick extra points?


NCSU 34
ECU 24

lovin the optimism. this is more like it

9/18/2008 12:28:06 PM

NC State 27
ECU 21

ECU scores two touchdowns in the first quarter, we begin to show signs of life in the middle of the second. In the second half Russell Wilson becomes a hero.

Irving continues to be a scary fucking monster.

Fuck you, ECU. Enjoy the end of your run, and enjoy the Papajohns.com bowl.

Rare? We've got three wins over Top 25 teams these past two seasons. All came at home, and is the most of any team in the ACC.

Ok, so Fowler knows we won't win any more home games, but does he know that ECU likes to tear down our goal posts when they win on our field?

9/18/2008 12:59:23 PM

I imagine this to be a pretty low scoring game.

9/19/2008 12:14:52 AM

Yeah now ECU has no wins over ranked teams....

WVU is obviously down and people knew VT was down.

That said we will still prolly lose. God forbid we win, NOBODY RUSH THE FUCKING FIELD.

9/19/2008 12:31:05 AM

they don't let us rush even if we want to.

9/19/2008 12:32:38 AM

unfortunately though they still got a ranked win last week...it always counts where the team is ranked when you play them
